Hello Guys/Gals!
My name’s George and just wanted to introduce myself. I’m new To Krav Maga and actually just signed up for my first class this Weds. I’ve been doing a lot of research and Krav Maga def. seems like what I’m looking for. I’ll be traveling down to the Owings Mills facility so it’s not too far from York, PA.
I recently just got back from Amsterdam (which was so awesome btw) and on one of the last night we were there I almost got mugged while walking back to my hotel. I felt so defenseless while this guy tried to take my wallet. Ever since I got back, I wanted to take some classes. I’m really looking forward to my first class. Take care!!George

Yea, it was def. an eye opener! Even if I knew some sort of self defense, I probably would of gave him the money anyway. Who knows if he had a gun, plus there was two of them. My life wasn’t worth risking over 100 euro haha.
Yes, I’ve heard very good things about the Columbia/OM locations. Should be a lot of fun and informative. I’ve always been looking for a no bs type of self defense, and Krav Maga seems like exactly that. Not flashy, but extrememly effective in real world situations.January 15, 2009 at 5:02 pm #72523mikwrighMemberRe: Hello from South Eastern PA!
Welcome aboard, George.
You’ve made an excellent choice investing in Krav. I imagine in light of your situation overseas that your training will be quite effective, as the mindset of real-world application is a big plus towards focus. I hope you enjoy the workout and are able to reap the rewards of learning self defense while having a blast. See you at Owings Mills.

Thanks for the welcome. Yesterday was my first class. Phew!! I never knew I would have so much fun having my butt kicked haha. The warm-up was intense, but fun in the same way. Evan was our instructor and I can really tell he’ll be a blast to learn from. A lot of energy and easy to work with. We learned front 2-handed choke defense which seems very effective in real world situations. All-in-all, I was hooked after yesterday. Everyone seemed very friendly and informative while I was there. Can’t wait for my 2nd class 🙂
